Come “visit the Wall”, a student-and-faculty-built replica of the Berlin Wall which went down 30 years ago! Reflect upon the historical and general meaning of the Wall, bring a pen and leave your thoughts in writing or drawing, engage with it in any productive way you like. And join us for a collective “Tearing down the Wall” event on Saturday, November 9th, in the evening. Once the Wall is gone, let’s celebrate inside of Atwater!!!

In the 1960s the media situation in Japan changed profoundly; suddenly everything and everyone seemed connected, and the circulating information grew exponentially. It put everyone caught up in these changes under intense pressure to make sense of this new world of media connectivity.
